TALE OF THREE STATES.
Penn. Boy Skips to Wash. Terri
tory With an Ohio Woman.

Mt. PLEASANT, Penn, July 26.-Ho-
ea Duncan, a Mt. Pleasant hoy who
Jas just reached his majority, is at
Tacoma, Washington territory, and
With him is the wife of Neil z. Kerr, of
Cincinnati, general passenger agent Of
he Chicago, Burlington & Quincy rail-
load. The particulars Of the young
mans escapade that has brought sor-
Tow to one of Mt. Peasants most re-
epectable families,a about as follows:
Noung Duncan for about a year has
been attending the Eclectic college, at
Cincinnati, and while there boarded at
the same place where did Mr.. and Mrs.
skerr, the duties of the former re-
4uiring his absence during great
Fer part of the time. Hosea be-
came very intimate with Mrs.
kerr, who is described as a pretty
.blonde who dressed elegantly, was fond
Eof attention and although 80 years of
Esge, did not look more than 20. About
two weeks ago, while Mr.. Kerr was
Eaway from home, she and Duncan
crossed the Ohio to Kentucky, where
they were married. They then went
to Seattle, w. T., where it is said the
gay young husband intends engaging
in the drug business with a Cincinnati
chum who followed him. The
Wronged husband with a detective
came here last week to get evidence to
be used in procuring divorce, which,
1t seems, he now desires more than
blood. Rumor has it that he even
went SO far as to write young Duncan
letter, in which he congratulates the
receiver on securing his faithless
spouse.

Fishes Out of Water.

There are several species of fish which
are much more at home out of their
natural element than any species of the
human race are in water. The climb
ing perch (Anabas scandensJ is a re-
markable example found in Asia. This
singular creature appears much like
other perch, but is endowed with an
extraordinary power of leaving failing
streams. climbing the banks, and pro-
ceeding over dry land in quest of better
filled water-courses. Hundreds fthem
have been seen at distance of fifty. or
sixty yards from pool just abandoned,
and travelling, though the ground was
SO rough that this distance must have
required sufficient muscular exertion to
take them half mile over level ground.
Some writer's even assert that this fish is
capable of climbing the rough stems of
palm-trees. The fishermen of the
Gauges, who subsist largely on climb
ing perch, are accustomed to keep them
in dry earthern pans for FIVE or six days
after catching. and they live this strange
Life without discomfort. Science.
